"Before the course, I was already fairly comfortable at talking to people at events, but thought that I could be more strategic about this, and how to do that was one of my key learnings from the course. I loved the interactive nature of the day and the practise we had and I now feel OK in moving on from a conversation." (Networking Training)

"I came on this course because although I felt reasonably confident presenting, I found it difficult putting together the presentation content and structure. I now feel I know how to have a better flow, what content to include and what to leave out and how to have better audience engagement." (Presentation Skills Workshop)

I am still smiling from your wonderful talk on Tuesday and shared so much of it with a client of mine yesterday. You are amazing, thank you.

"Before working with Rachel, I used to see perfect strangers chat amiably and seemingly with ease, and wish I knew how to do that. Rachel gave me some simple steps to follow which I gradually put into practise. I recently had a chance conversation with 2 perfect strangers that resulted in a client appointment with one of them as well as an invitation to give a presentation to a group of her contacts, all within my target audience. Amazing!" (Speaker Coaching)

“I had already written my first keynote speech when I contacted Rachel for coaching. I wanted her help to make it the best it could be and because I was feeling anxious about presenting it. Through our series of one to one sessions, she helped me take it to a much more professional level. She gave me so many useful tips on the content and also on my delivery, and was also great fun to work with and super supportive!

The speech went really well and has already led on to other things. Job well done, thank you Rachel.”
